when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie....

 ..thats amor-eh!

 And that's our view of Sorrento from our balcony!

I have a big birthday this year

lets say it's the one where they say your life begins.

So this holiday was my choice

and somewhere I've wanted to go for a long time.

Not Sorrento actually 

but the historical sights of Pompeii and Heculaneum.

I didn't however expect to fall in love with Sorrento.

It's my third trip to Italy

and can honestly say it is by far the friendliest most easy going town,

I would highly reccommend it.

I strangely put it on a par with St Ives in Cornwall,

great views, quaint cobbled streets with an artsy vibe.

I have a feeling we will return...maybe sooner than later!

I'll leave you with the awesome Vesuvius over looking Pompeii.

More pics to follow

with masses of quilting inspiration that truly puts the 

'who got there first, regarding block design' to bed.

ps. I'm still a thirty-niner!!

Ciao bella xx
pps.
No one tells you that the air is filled with the
most intoxicating lemon blossom fragrance.
If you know what ylang ylang smells like you'll have an idea
of the headiness that follows you around!!!!!!!
